lifelong knitter

Day Twenty-one...

In which I have my bone density scan at the Hospital.

There was SNOW on the side of the road...SO Pretty when it needn't be shoveled!

When I checked my mailbox, my heart beat a little faster....

Is there a better bookstore, anywhere?

Feel free to recommend if you know one...

Inside was this:

Just the thing for a day like today!

Happy Weekend to you...Hope it is filled with LOVELY moments!

mwah!

Day Twenty....

In which we go to Golden Corral and Target with the Boybird

and have a LOVELY time.

He looks SO much better than last week.

The meds are really helping him!

Much Knitting was accomplished in the afternoon

while trying to keep Molly poodle from rushing around too much.

She can't put any weight at ALL on the back right leg,

but that doesn't slow her down much....

She's doing the three-legged sack race all by herself!

Day Nineteen...

In which Molly poodle blows out her knee, goes to the vet,

is seen immediately, diagnosed within an hour

and is on the schedule for surgery next week.

Appropriate pain meds are prescribed and a PLAN

is in place.

No mention of the patient's inability to communicate verbally.

Compare and contrast to the boybird's experience of

medical care....

sigh.

Much Knitting was accomplished.

Day Eighteen..

Which included SNOW flurries,

KNITTING,

and a negative biopsy for the boybird.

Back to square one.

sigh.

Day Sixteen...

In which I celebrate with my wonderful neighbor at a special Birthday Brunch....

Two birthdays in a row make for a very lovely weekend!

I got my hour of knitting in while waiting for the Daughterbird

to return and then check out books

at the Public Library.

Life is SWEET.

Day Fifteen....

In which I mourn,

for it is the anniversary

of my Daddy's death....

and celebrate,

as it is also a HUNDREDTH birthday party....

(I have tried to upload the picture from the

party FIVE times now, and typepad eats it every time.

Guess TYPEPAD likes CAKE!)

I started thinking about all of the things we take

for granted that have been around LESS

than 100 years...

Amazing, really.

Knitting has been around a LOT longer though,

so I'd better get back to it!

Namaste.

Day Fourteen...

Which has been a very RAINY day...but quite productive, knitting-wise.

Still waiting for the results from the Boybird's biopsy. They are not willing to release the results until he has an appointment with the Primary Care Doc. That has been scheduled for Tuesday, now.

Suddenly I am feeling very, VERY Anxious about all of this....

Prayers, if you please.

Day Thirteen...

In which I ask you for a few moments of your time to watch THIS.

Knitting while watching it is possible, although I needed tissues.

Day twelve...

In which I get in touch with my Inner Curly Girl...

Went to the salon and had my hair cut....

Oh, he's a GENIUS!

My hair has its naturally curliness back again and I had an hour and a HALF

of Uninterrupted KNITTING!

Good Times!

Day Eleven...

In which I pause to remember

and HONOR

all who Protect and Serve

this country.

I'd also like to point out that the Mommymobile chose TODAY to show 111111

on her odometer. 

Elevenses, how I love thee...
